Bessie shut up!" CALCULATED Jess, not even
pausing to marvel at the doglike instinct that
enabled the Hottentot to identify her. "What

In few seconds he returned, and,

which she could see the light shining Going

would only be imprisoned and kept oaat Of
harmsway, or possibly murdered withoue

to communicate with her uncle and Bessie, to
tell them that John was, 50 far as she knew,
alive, only to recognize the impossibility of'
doing SO now that the sentry was back Be-
sides, what object could be servedi The
knowledge that John was alive might, it %
true, nerve up Bessie to resist Muller, hut
then the sole result would be that the old mam
would be shot. Dismissiug this- -fsonS hep
mind, She began 20 consider whethsr tasy
could obtain assistance. Alasl 1t was inn
possible. Tho only people from whom she
could hope fer help would be the natives, and
now that the Beers had triumphed over the
English for this much she had gathered from
her captors and from Jantje), it was very
doubtful If they would dare to help her. Be
sides, at the best, it would take twenty four
hours to collect a force, and that would be too
late. The thing wns hopeless. Nowhere
could she see ray Of light.
"What," she said aloud to herself, "what q

And then all of an instant the answer ross

curdled buttermilk, which q woman had
brought him down that very morning from q
neighboring kraal, and was destined for
Jantje's own supper. Hungry as he"w was
himself, for he had had no food all day, he
gave it to jess without a moments hesita-
ton, together with a wooden spoon, and,
squatting ON the rock before her, watched her
eat it with cultural exclamations of satisfac-

She was gone, her arms full Of flowers;
he could hear her singing cheerfully along
the corridor; and he turned, Tuning a lit
tie to Lady Anna, who was putting away
her pen and her book.
"What has Sibyl been chattering
about2" she asked absently her head still
full of her figures. "IIad she finished her

Dixon shall show you to your rooms. We
dined long ago; but supper will be ready

you will find everything comfortable up

An elderly woman in white cap an
swered Lady Annals summons, and con-
Quoted Mr.. Breton up broad stone stair
case TO his rooms, bedroom and little
sitting room opening off it, both looking
across the lawn and its lilac and saffron
crocus-beds, both wide open windows
thickly framed in ivy, and both furnish
ed in delightfully."- quaint and simple
fashion.
But not primrose was to be seen. Mr..
Breton shrugged his shoulders, and
smiled as he noticed their absence, though
he really felt rather annoyed than other
wise.
"What is Lady Anna about 2" he thought
AS he proceeded to get rid Of some of
the dust Of his journey. "a woman who
knows the world, to let a girl grow up
like thatl However, in one way, / sup
pose it is rather fortunate. A fellow
might have been tempted into Irritation
with girl of another sort, shut up here
as shall be, with no companion but my
own bitter memories"-another tremend-
GUS sigh to the cruel memory of cousin
Kate-"but am certainly in no danger as
far as Miss Sibyl is concerned, pretty as
she is. A man does not like to have the
running made for him quite so openly"
He was ready to go down stairs when a
bell rang, which he took for summons
tosupper. Mr.. Lansing, an old and white
haired man, was already in the dining
room-a pretty room, oak-panelled like
the rest of the house, its open windows
showing picture-like glimpse of poplars
